No "Wah.'

From the washington observer.
While the indications of war are
continually fluctuating in Europe
they seem to have settled down to
one steady indicate among the
newspaper lei of this congressional
district. The Mexico I~nteHigencer
has Just called forth an irate gentle
man who proceeds to sling blood-so-
Letting adjectives with an abandon
beautiful to behold. The Montgom-
cry Standard has recently melted its
representative in the legislature to
denounee it as a liar and several 9TH
er wicked things over his own name
The Troy Herald, Troy News and
Bowling Green Post have been hay
ing a three-cornerey affair of honor
over the whipping of a boy in the
public school and the Mexico LEDGER
has q contract with a book agent to
fight by the year, SO that the pros.
poets of war in this district are al
ways thrilling and imminent, but ow-
ing to the diplomacy of the press in
such matters we do not always trust
indications ven in the darkest mo
ments. God bless the man who in
vented diplomacy; it will eternally
save the press of the 7th district.

This enormous sum IS in addition
to the regular appropriations, which
aggregated s209, 000, 900 for the cur
e Il yesr-an increase of S87, 00O, 900
within ten years.
Besides these there are pending the
Blair Educational Bill, which has
once passed the Senate, appropriating
$4,000, 900; the removal of the
limitation for arrears of pensions.
which would add many millions more
to the list, and no end of public
building and other jobs for the deple-
tion OF the Treasury.
Some of these appropriations do
not apply in q lump, but are extend
ed over periods varying from FIVE to
ten years. The object and the effect
OF this, however, are not only to use
up the present surplus, but to pre-
vent the accumulation of any surplus
in the future. and thus avoid a re-
duciion of taxation. Continuing ap-
preparations mean a perpetuation of
the war taxes. And this is what this
